To feel such sensation and pain in the filling area after getting a filling done is normal , but if the senation continues beyond a week or any further than 10 days , you must visit the dentist and get an xray done , to rule out the cause.
Next Steps
Visit a dentist as soon as possible and get a correct diagnosis done.

Few patients experience it, it's common to have sensitivity and pain after restoration, would advise you to wait for 1 week,In case ,if pain dsnt subside and is severe then:-
Get x-ray done,check if the filling is close to the pulp,if it's close to pulp u need to get RCT done followed by crown
Next Steps
Visit nearby dental surgeon for physical examination and evaluation
